Deossa debuts with Colombia and Bernal strikes at La Bombonera

Deossa made his Colombia debut as a starter in a 1-0 win over Chile; Bernal came off the bench in Uruguay's 2-1 victory at Argentina.

Nelson Deossa earned his first cap for Colombia's senior side, starting in midfield in a 1-0 victory over Chile in Cali. The Real Betis midfielder played the first half before being replaced at the break by Óscar Perea.

Facundo Bernal featured for Uruguay, entering the pitch in the 76th minute as a substitute in their 2-1 win over Argentina at La Bombonera. The result marked Argentina's first defeat since losing the World Cup final to Spain.

Other Betis players saw action in international fixtures: Ez Abde played 75 minutes in Morocco's 5-1 rout of Niger, while Ángel Ortiz featured for Spain's U21 side in a 2-0 win over Japan. Manu González and Marc Roca remained unused substitutes in their respective matches.

Several players will return to Seville at different times, with Deossa, Bernal and Fidalgo completing their commitments in the early hours of Wednesday 18 September, leaving limited preparation time before the derby against Sevilla on Saturday 21 September.
